Grub Very Picky

I just installed fedora 17 on my laptop and i changed grub.cfg to remove the rhgb and quiet part so I can see the cool verbose boot. I also added rdblacklist=radeon to install fglrx. Now i cant even boot. I just get stuck at loading ram disk. I made similar changes to a virtualbox vm and had no problems.

Please help me. I cant even boot my laptop now. This is a fresh install. Nothing added, nothing else changed.

Re: Grub Very Picky

Not really cool to edit grub.cfg. Those changes should go into /etc/default/grub.
Quote:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.md=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.dm=0 SYSFONT=True KEYTABLE=us rd.luks=0 LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rhgb quiet"
Change that line and then run
PHP Code:
grub2-mkconfig -/boot/grub2/grub.cfg 
Reboot.

Guess this won't help much if your system won't boot. Reboot with the install DVD and reinstall grub.
